Happy New Year to you all from everyone at Morriscastle! We really hope that you all had brilliant Christmas holidays and are weathering the winter well. We also hope that you are all well rested and excitedly planning your Camping and Caravanning holidays in Morriscastle for 2013!!

Currently at Morriscastle Holiday Park, we’re working away in preparation for the summer in a few months. We’re opening up on the 9th of March and we’re looking forward to welcoming you between then and the end of September.

This winter we have had our tennis courts painted up to some very snazzy colours so that everyone knows when their balls are out! We are making plans in advance for the entire summer so hopefully we’ll have a schedule for the months of July and August as well as Paddys Weekend, the Easter Break and the June Bank Holiday weekend. I guess this means that you will all know in advance what the activities/kidskamp/events are which might be handy for anyone planning a trip. We’re also chatting with local providers (in Co Wexford) who are offering all of our guests/campers/mobile-homers discounts on their services/activities etc so please drop into us in Reception to get this info throughout the summer.

We’re hoping to be celebrating Christmas and Halloween this summer too so anyone who wants to bring their Santa suit or a scary outfit please remember to do so! I always think its a pity that we’re out of season for those fun holidays, the only stipulation of course is that for the Halloween party EVERYONE has to dress up and for the Christmas party EVERYONE has to bring a little pressie and we’ll do KrisKindle. We’ll also have a Holiday park Photo Shoot, Charity walks and hopefully a Kidskamp tour or two. Sounds like fun so I’ll set the schedule up soon and pop it onto our website and Facebook.

By the way, I’m going to have to change our Facebook account completely over to a Fan page very soon. We do already have a Fan page up on Facebook so if you would be so good as to go to this link

and ‘like’ it, you’ll be making an old girl pretty happy. I started it up last year sometime and ran out of time to switch over completely by the time July came around. I’ll be working on developing it further from March. It would be really something to get maybe 1000 ‘Likes’ before the end of the summer this year. Actually, Im planning a photo comp for the summer season this year so ‘Like’ our page and you’ll get all the info for that…including the amazing prizes! ( which I still have to organise ).

That’s it for now, hope you like the images from the olden days when Ed and Ria started up Morriscastle. I’m including a shot of an article in The Irish Times from 1970 which is just the coolest read. Inspiring stuff!

Bye for now,

Niamh

Ps, All booking forms for long and short stay this summer will be posted in the first week of Feb. Anyone who would prefer to get an email with form attached please let me know either by emailing info@morriscastlestrand.com or text me at 087 7737637. Thanks!
